Being in Florida, I wouldn't suggest black. Maybe something like these:

Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Thanks, Vortex. I knew black was out (wedding AND Florida? yeah). I'd been thinking of something sort of gauzy, maybe in a floral/tropical print.
It's just kind of difficult - I'm a plus size, don't want to go sleeveless, and I'm relegated to flats these days. sigh.
Of course, there's a good chance I won't be able to get the time off - it's just a week or two before our annual conference ....

The dress is sleeveless, but there's a cute little jacket. And it's a zebra print, which is very florida to me. :)

Thanks, omnis.
ION, statistics are from the devil. Or just the statistic questions I have to answer. Damn you, SPSS and mostly the lecturer who's (not) teaching it.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
ION, statistics are from the devil.YES! This. So much! I was GREAT at math. And in college, had to take only (1) math class. I was foolish, being a freshman, and thought the lowest class number was the easiest class, and too Probability and Statistics. Nearly failed. If not for the algebra refresher part at the beginning of the semester (which I aced), I would have. Ugg. Good luck Shir!!
ION, saleslady is not calling back yet. I won't be able to climb back into bed after all. Thankfully I got a TON of sleep, just was being greedy and wanting more.

Try Silhouettes and/or IGIGI.

Also B & Lu, and alight.com (which can be hit-or-miss).

Thanks! I've checked them and seen some possibilities ... just not sure if they're ME.

Actually, Todd, check Coldwater Creek, too. A lot of their stuff can be matronly, but not all; what I *have* bought from there, I've loved, and it's been well-made and fits true to the size charts.

Where in Florida, Todd? (hopeful) October is still very warm on my end of the state so comfort fabric will be important. Forget the after Labor Day stuff, white is always good even at weddings, floral prints a very good choice.
